Hull Vane presents Blue Efficiency at SMM 2016

Jul 11, 2016

Save the date for 6-9 September as the SMM 2016 istaking place. At the leading international maritime trade fair in Hamburg, Hull Vane® will present the patented energy saving device in a shared booth with Van Oossanen Fluid Dynamics

Hull Vane, winner of the Maritime Innovation Award 2015, will explain its proven solution to reduce ships’ fuel consumption and improve their seakeeping. Recent research has shown a significant potential for improvement of the comfort, safety and operability in waves of naval & coastguard ships, superyachts, offshore vessels and ferries.

At SMM 2016 Van Oossanen Fluid Dynamics will showcase its proven expertise on ship optimization, presenting new forms of services. CFD subscriptions offer clients the possibility to make use of our advanced software, cluster and expertise on demand. The latest development, an online ship analysis that will be available from September 2016.

In the process of designing, building or refitting a vessel, Van Oossanen Fluid Dynamics can analyze and improve the hydrodynamic performance of a vessel, using Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD). Direct benefits are fuel economy, crew or passenger comfort by reduced accelerations, wind hinder or green water effects, and an increased speed.

Optimized hull designs as well as vessels equipped with a Hull Vane, newbuild and retrofit, both contribute to the Blue Efficiency of vessels and make the maritime industry ready for the future.

Join us at the SMM where we look forward to welcome you at booth B2.EG.118.
